Lmao, with all our prevent plant this year.... I have plenty! It is nasty stuff... covered 100 miles in a couple of years!

I have had excellent brassicas with no fertilizer the right soils. Since n is highly mobile in the soil you can always bradcast the urea before a rain if you think they need a boost. I'm trying to elimimate tillage from my rotation wherever possible and brassicas have been my most successful...

This is funny... pigweed has been the number one plant showing browse pressure on my farm the last few weeks! I have been riding around looking at the dozens of species that I have planted thinking it would have been much easier to just till some ground and let it go crazy lol

I was able to swing by the farm and check on my plantings from a few weeks ago, it is soooo exciting to see the baby trees and shrubs start to pop!

You will for sure loose some over that time, some years it is more, some less. We figure that in 8 weeks all the N will be atleast 6 in down if not further. You will loose Urea into the air and below the root zone.

Can you till, or mow it?

Great photo sequence, thanks for posting!

That is a bad deal, budget cuts? I'm thinking maybe an elm tree pictured? Anyone have any experience with deer foraging on mulberry trees?

Is this better?

Thanks for all the great info guys! I have been following Dbltree's Corner for years now and I have spent countless hours reading all of the fantastic information he compiled for us. He is definitely one of my heros! I have been doing so much research lately I had to stop by one of my farms and...

If you find some, would you let me know??

It is hard to say, I have not done a proper survey. The only time I've been in the main block of trees was last December before we purchased the property. Once we were the proud owners the timber became a 17+- acre refuge. No humans for any reason unless you shoot a deer and it runs in there...

Thanks for the feedback!

It depends on what you have competing with your switch grass. If it were mine I would try to kill the competition with either herbicide or burn and re-seed switch to fill in the bad areas.
